Saturday, we boarded the Arcon to join in on the annual Gasparilla Invasion of Tampa. This consists of a gaggle of ships, boats and other floating craft forming a flotilla around the Jose Gasparilla pirate ship as she travels across Hillsborough Bay and into the heart of downtown Tampa where the pirates take over the city for a day of celebration and festivities including the Gasparilla Parade. I have posted a number of photos and one video on my Flickr site and, for those interested in a little history of Gasparilla, a couple of additional links.
